Chapter 37. Do You Remember How Many Slices of Bread You Have Eaten?
---
"JOJO, human ability has its limits."
DIO sighed helplessly: "I have learned ohing from my short life. The more people py tricks, the more likely they are to fall into ued situations, uhey surpass humans."
"What do you mean? What oh are you talking about!?"
"I'm not a human anymore, JOJO!" The a of surrendering instantly ged as DIO held the stone mask in one hand to attract JOJO's attention, and a knife iher hand to kill JOJO. He shouted loudly: "I want to surpass humans!!"
"JOJO, I'll use your blood!!"
...
"Even though it's a monster, I still feel bad."
"Dad, please make me stronger." JOJO, who killed the zombie with a spear, prayed in his heart: "I must show a strong will. DIO is no longer a human being, but a monster!"
"DIO, I will never allow you to kill anyone again!!"
...
"I told you that, right, JOJO?"
"The more you py tricks, the easier it will be to find that humans have their limits. Stop hiding behind a mat and trembling in your death throes."
"e out!…Wha, what!!?"
Fme.
The bzing fmes spread along the mat that DIO had lifted, burning his body!
Aeo the entire Joestar house!
"This is not a strategy, this is ce!!" JOJO in the sea of fire shouted.
...
"My youth is the youth that ent with DIO!"
", let me put ao this youth!"
"...Mr. Joestar must have thought so. He hoped that the firepower would be stronger so that the monster's recovery ability could not keep up with the speed of the burns, so that he could defeat DIO!" Speedwagon said sadly: "That's why he climbed onto the roof ahe fire spread ihe house!"
...
"DIO, I'm back!"
"I won't let you go this time! DIO, your fate ends here, use this khe khat stabbed into your father's body!!"
"W-what! How dare you…how dare you…!!"
DIO wailed as JOJO fixed his body with a dagger and rushed head-on into the statue of the guardian goddess of the Joestar family along the structure of the Joestar house. His body was pletely trapped in the sea of fire.
"Hehe, ahhhhhhhhhhh… Immortality, immortality… My life shouldn't be like this… JOJO!!!"
...
"I am Baron Zeppeli. Ce alone ot defeat the power of the Stone Mask."
Zeppeli, who almost fell down because of the pepper he had sprinkled on his sandwich, said to JOJO: "I poked your diaphragm with my finger and made you use a special breathihod."
"Let me show you the energy geed by breathing!"
...
"Ce is knowing fear, mastering fear!"
"Fear disrupts your breathing rhythm, but once you trol your fear, your breathing rhythm will be perfectly normal."
"The breath of the Ripple Method is the product of ce!"
"The hymn of humanity is the hymn of ce!"
"The greatness of mankind is the greatness of ce!"
Iunnel, Zeppeli, who was lured here by the zombies, did not ge his expression at all. He even had time to teach JOJO: "No matter how powerful they are, these zombies still don't know what ce is!"
...
"Hoeople's blood did you suck to heal your wounds?"
Fag Zeppeli's low scolding, DIO said nontly: "Do you remember how many slices of bread you have eaten so far?"
...
"Engrave it, the pulsation of blood!"
JOJO mustered up his ce and used Zeppeli's teags as nutrients to grow. He was not afraid of his breathing being sealed, but spoke calmly.
"It's disadvantageous for you to fight in water. It's very easy for ripples to be transmitted in water!"
"Specially for uer use—"
"Turquoise Blue Overdrive!"
...
Time passed, week after week.
Simirly, Phantom Blood was broadcast episode after episode.
In the first episode, there isn't much plot to be seen.
Thanks not only to Jonathan and DIO, but also to Artoria, Kirigaya Kazuto, and other chosen actors who put on amazing performahis dull opening erformed so well that it automatically drew the audieo the story from the very beginning.
It also allowed the audieo quickly uand the personalities of the twonists, JOJO and DIO.
In the sed and third episodes,
Stone Ghost Mask and Ripple, these two symbolize different life characteristics.
One is the Stone Mask, which prolongs its own survival by abs the essence of others.
One is the Ripple, which strengthens one's own life energy and also help others recover their vitality.
They are like the twonists, DIO and JOJO, whose personalities are so extreme that it is impossible for them to coexist.
Together with the two main lines iire plot of "Phantom Blood", a er of this great story begins to be slowly revealed and unfolded in front of the audience.
And now that this setting is being more and more perfect.
inally, the audience was just impressed by the ag skills of the leading actors.
They were attracted by the various magical as and exaggerated facial expressions, as well as the onomatopoeia that popped up from time to time. It looked very strange, but after watg it for a long time, there was an inexplicable feeling of onomatopoeia that attracted their attention.
And this "ジョジョ ~So no o Sadame~" is really o listen to, and the OP is o watch, which is why the audience chooses to watch "Phantom Blood".
They like this more and more wonderful story more and more.
Especially after JOJO met Baron Zeppeli and learhe Ripple, which has a strong inhibitory effe vampires.
DIO mao survive the fire at the Joestar residence, albeit at the cost of being seriously injured.
He also began to show his amazing bat intelligend ruthlessness!
Not only did he not have the slightest sense of guilt for being a human being just a sed ago, but he also easily accepted his identity as a vampire and ed a rge number of humans to repair his injuries.
After suffering a loss, he didn't deceive himself with excuses like "I was just careless" or "JOJO was just lucky."
Instead, he straightforwardly admitted that he had made the mistake of uimating JOJO.
While carefully monit JOJO, after seeing the restraining ability of Ripple, he specially arranged for the zombies he transformed to test JOJO and the others, just to explore the principles of Ripple and find a way to restrain it.
But, is that the end?
Not yet!
In order to create a greater ce of winning for himself,
DIO also took advantage of the weakness of JOJO and his friends as humans and used hypnotic methods like children to lure them step by step into the trap he specially prepared for them.
Eveime was calcuted, and the battle was scheduled fht!
This kind of high-IQ frontation makes it impossible to guess what choices the characters will make until the very end, which leaves plenty of suspense for the story.
After all, in this world, there has never been a big devil ears in front of the novice vilge in advanor a big devil who specifically collects intelligen heroes tet them.
It be said that uhese factors, if we ask today's audiences what se they least want to see,
It's definitely not that my favorite character was killed by the swriter;
Or the heroihat you like has been repced by a yellow-haired man by the swriter;
It's "←—To Be tinued", the root of all evil!
So when a new week es,
Almost all the viewers who followed "Phantom Blood" put on their full-dive helmets as soon as possible and waited for it to start pying...
